Lyrics
v1
Tell me you weren?t sleeping
Tell me there?s no one else at home
Tell me I can come over now
I?m feeling awfully alone
v2
Tell me I can sit next to you
Tell me I can hold your hand
Tell me I can kiss you
Tell me you?d understand
chorus
But don?t you tell me that you don?t love me
And don?t you tell me that you don?t care
And don?t you tell me that it is over for good
Cause I won?t hear it, no I won?t hear it anyway
v3
Tell me I can tuck you in
Tell me I can watch you sleep
Tell me I can sleep close to you
I?d even sleep at your feet
(chorus)
bridge
I watch your lips move as you speak to me
But your words fall on deaf ears, you might as well speak Greek
(chorus)
